FARMINGTON — A man was arrested early Friday evening for aggravated driving while intoxicated after reportedly leaving the scene of a crash on Meaderboro Road with a minor in the vehicle at the time.

James Sanger, Jr., 41, of Farmington, was arrested at his residence on Squire Road and charged with aggravated DWI because the passenger was under the age of 16. Police say the investigation into the incident is ongoing and there may be additional charges brought against the suspect.

Farmington Police Sgt. Michael McNeil said a call came in at approximately 4:08 p.m. from a passerby who saw Sanger’s 1995 Jeep Cherokee in an embankment off Meaderboro Road. The reporting party was concerned Sanger may have been injured and contacted authorities.

McNeil said officials learned Sanger was headed toward Poor Farm Road when the incident occurred, with a 14-year-old juvenile in the passenger seat.

According to Fire Chief Richard Fowler, both Sanger and the minor were able to extricate themselves from the vehicle. The Cherokee was reportedly totaled in the crash which did not involve any other vehicles.

McNeil said Sanger was found at his home and arrested there. Both Sanger and the juvenile were reportedly uninjured in the crash.
